Millions of children live in a book desert - no books to spark imagination. No books to strengthen their literacy and critical thinking skills. No books to connect with the outside world. And without them, their education suffers. First Book changes all of that.

At First Book, we serve children in underserved communities, who may have never owned their own book before. 
That's why we need your support - to get books into the hands of children who need them most. You can spark a lifelong love of reading! 

All donations are unrestricted, supporting First Book’s mission and national efforts. 97% of donations provide new books and educational resources for children in need.
